Hill v. J.M Irrigations, Inc.

 

Hill, 42, was driving through an intersection on his motorcycle while the light was green when a van turned left in front of him, causing a collision.  Hill sustained a closed-head injury and fractures of the pelvis, wrist, and hand and later developed drop foot syndrome.  He incurred $376,000 in past medical costs.  Hill had been earning $50,000 annually as a foreman but is now completely disabled.  He claimed $1 million in future anticipated wage loss.

 

 

Hill claimed the van driver's employer was vicariously liable for its employee's failure to yield the right-of-way.

 

Before suit was filed, the parties entered into a structured settlement with a present value of $5.75 million, to be paid by defendant's insurer.  The settlement consists of a $3 million cash payment with the remainder going into the structured settlement, which has a guaranteed payout of $5.3 million.

Awarded: $5,750,000.00
